The vertical structure of the boundary layer around compact objects
Marius Hertfelder, Wilhelm Kley
Context. Mass transfer due to Roche lobe overflow leads to the formation of an accretion disk around a weakly magnetized white dwarf (WD) in cataclysmic variables. At the inner edg…

The Boundary Layer in compact binaries
Marius Hertfelder
We perform numerical hydrodynamical simulations in order to calculate the luminosity and the spectrum of the BL and its dependence on parameters like the mass, rotation rate or mas…

Wave mediated angular momentum transport in astrophysical boundary layers
Marius Hertfelder, Wilhelm Kley
Context. Disk accretion onto weakly magnetized stars leads to the formation of a boundary layer (BL) where the gas loses its excess kinetic energy and settles onto the star. There…
